Christian Kids Books

Christian kids books and other popular children's books can be used in creative ways to impart important Bible truths.

Children's books teach more than just reading. There are so many wonderful picture books that teach powerful life lessons as well as Christian values.


Everyone loves a story!

Stories just stick with us, they draw us in to become a part of them so that we may experience something new and amazing. Because of this, Children's books offer creative Bible teaching opportunities for both children, as well as, youth, and adults.

What child doesn't love to cuddle up and listen to a good book read aloud to them? Spending time with a child is one of the greatest gifts we can give them. Combine that with a love for reading and a love for God, and you have the recipe for some wonderful life-changing moments!


These Christian kids books with Bible lessons include activities for children, but may be adapted to any age. No one is too old to have a children's book read aloud to them. They can provide rich life lessons for all of us, and admit it, we enjoy being read to also!

Some of our favorite Christian kids books impart wonderful Bible truths for all ages through memorable stories that are not only entertaining, but also thought provoking. Christian authors like Max Lucado, Angela Ewell Hunt, Janette Oke, Karen Kingsbury, and others weave wonderful tales for both adults and children.

Let's face it: reading is essential for all other academic areas, but also it is an incredible ability God has given to us. Let's use it not only to prepare children for academics, but also to impart life lessons from His Word as we read and discuss the themes and content in both Christian childrens books, as well as other popular children's books.

Below are children's books that are fun to read aloud along with lesson plans.


Christian Kids Books- with Lessons

You are special 

This book by Max Lucado encourages kids (and adults) not base their identity upon what others think, but only what God thinks. And God thinks each of us is pretty special!

You Are Special - Lesson


tale of three trees 

God has a special plan for each of us. This legend looks at three trees that have dreams and how because of God's love, they become more than they ever dreamed.  This book is excellent for both Christmas & Easter for it walks through the life of Jesus.


The Tale of Three Trees Lesson 



sidney & Norman 

Sidney and Norman are as different at two pigs can be; they come to realize the danger when we compare ourselves to others.


Sidney & Norman: A Tale of Two Pigs - Lesson


Pumpkin patch parable 

This perfect book for Fall has a wonderful lesson comparison of the Gospel.  We've used this as an activity at our church fall festival to share Jesus and in our own home with our kids as we carved a pumpkin.

Pumpkin Patch Parable Lesson 


The Oak Inside the Acorn

"Just be the tree God made you to be," said Mother Oak.

This sweet story will help kids as well as adults understand that God has created each of us to be who He designed us to be.

Comparing ourselves to others is dangerous.  Little Acorn learns along his journey that God had a special plan and purpose just for him!

Christian Lessons from other Children's Books


In any learning process, it is essential for both modeling of a skill and practicing of that same skill to take place.

Reading aloud children's books provide a living model for children to both see and hear. As they hear the pronunciation of both letters and words they see on each page and also listen to your voice inflections, it provides a model for them to practice on their own.
